Victorian Britain saw the most dramatic growth of working occupations in the history of our nation, workshops and manufactories were springing up all over the country.
The Victorians developed a demand for consumer products and services, employing countless numbers of people including young children in various pursuits.
We find out what, 'Ankle Beaters', 'Wonkey-Scoops', 'Scraggers', and 'Crimpers', would be up to.
This talk also looks at the development of Victorian society as we explore the forgotten, complex and frequently dangerous working world of Victorian Britain.
Views: 129 | Enquiries: 0I worked for over thirty years for Kodak as an internal Management Consultant which involved making presentations at levels of the Company.
Upon leaving Kodak I took a teaching qualification and taught management subjects within the NHS and at the local further education college.
After teaching I decided to combine two passions, lecturing and Whitefriars Glass, so I carried out in depth research into the history of the Company and developed a series of talks/lectures enabling me to share my knowledge with any interested groups and societies.
I have since expanded my range of talks to include, Secret London, The Occupations of Victorian Britain and The Livery Companies of London, History of the Postal Services and other mainly history related topics.
